November Patreon: The Weaver Family
Three generations of killers: Ward Weaver Jr committed at least one double homicide but is a suspected serial killer. His son, Ward Weaver III, also killed (at least) two people - check out last month’s video for more on that. HIS son, Francis Weaver, was convicted of killing a man in 2014. Was it nature, nurture, or both? What led to three men from the same family becoming killers?
